Happy Sunday!

I'm bored, so I decided to post one of my favorite hymn songs...We use to do this every Thursday when we would have Thrusday devotional at P.R.C.A. This kid I knew James, he loved doing this song, and we loved him doing it it with us...So me, and some of my friends, and James would get on stage. Donny (Our then principle, and teacher) would play the keyboard, and we would sing, and James would do the back-up...It was pretty good actually...This is how we sung it...

All of us would sing the first verse..On the chorus it went like this...

James: Now let us
Everyone else: have a little talk with Jesus
James: Let us
Everyone else: tell Him all about our troubles.
James: He will
Everyone else: hear our faintest cry.
James: He will
Everyone else: answer by and by
James: When you
Everyone else: feel a little prayer wheel turning
James: Then you'll know
Everyone else: a little fire is buring
James: You will
Everyone else: find a little prayer with Jesus make's it right

Then we would go through the whole song...Do it over, but this time we would go faster, then faster, and faster...It was funny...We weren't trying to make fun of the song or anything...We were just bringing fun into it. I'm not sure who thought it was more fun...Us big kids, or the little kids! LOL! They wanted us to come in on Sunday's and do it, but I don't think that ever worked out... Ah, those were the days...It's still my favorite song...



Have A Little Talk With Jesus


I once was lost in sin but Jesus took me in,
And then a little light from Heaven filled my soul;
It bathed my heart in love and wrote my name above,
And just a little talk with Jesus made me whole.

    Chorus
    Now let us have a little talk with Jesus.
    Let us tell Him all about our troubles.
    He will hear our faintest cry
    And He will answer by and by.
    Now when you feel a little prayer wheel turning,
    Then you’ll know a little fire is burning.
    You will find a little talk with Jesus makes it right.

Sometimes my path seems drear, without a ray of cheer,
And then a cloud of doubt may hide the light of day;
The mists of sin may rise and hide the starry skies,
But just a little talk with Jesus clears the way.

    Chorus
    Now let us have a little talk with Jesus.
    Let us tell Him all about our troubles.
    He will hear our faintest cry
    And He will answer by and by.
    Now when you feel a little prayer wheel turning,
    Then you’ll know a little fire is burning.
    You will find a little talk with Jesus makes it right.

I may have doubts and fears, my eyes be filled with tears,
But Jesus is a friend who watches day and night;
I go to Him in prayer, He knows my ev'ry care,
And just a little talk with Jesus makes it right.

    Chorus
    Now let us have a little talk with Jesus.
    Let us tell Him all about our troubles.
    He will hear our faintest cry
    And He will answer by and by.
    Now when you feel a little prayer wheel turning,
    Then you’ll know a little fire is burning.
    You will find a little talk with Jesus makes it right.

Song...

How You Remind Me - Nickelback

Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing
Tired of living like a blind man
I'm sick of sight without a sense of feeling
And this is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
for handing you a heart worth breaking
and I've been wrong, i've been down,
been to the bottom of every bottle
these five words in my head
scream "are we having fun yet?"

yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no
yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no

it's not like you didn't know that
I said I love you and I swear I still do
And it must have been so bad
Cause living with me must have damn near killed you

And this is how, you remind me
Of what I really am
This is how, you remind me
Of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
for handing you a heart worth breaking
and I've been wrong, i've been down,
been to the bottom of every bottle
these five words in my head
scream "are we having fun yet?"

yet, yet, yet, no, no
yet, yet, yet, no, no
yet, yet, yet, no, no
yet, yet, yet, no, no

Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing
And this is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
Of what i really am
This is how you remind me
Of what i really am

It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
for handing you a heart worth breaking
and I've been wrong, i've been down,
been to the bottom of every bottle
these five words in my head
scream "are we having fun yet?"
yet, yet
are we having fun yet [3x]

Vacation journal....

While i was gone, I kept a journal...So, I'm typing it up...




Sept. 11th, 2005

We've been on the road for about an hour. My dad is already driving me nuts. I just grounded him from the radio. Since 8:18 a.m. my father has had the a/c on. It's 60degrees outside...Not 90! Gosh! This is why I hate car rides with my family!
If I have to hear Lonestar's "Coming Home" one more time, I'm going to slap someone...Emerson Drive, please!
It's 3:55p.m. and we are going through Birmingham. I can sum this place up in 5 words: That Don't Impress Me Much! I'm not racist, but we went through one part of Brim, and I was tempted to lock the door. It's not that black people scare me, but it's the fact that all people; black or white scare me!
We went over a Tallahachee bridge, and I've been singing that darn song for a good 100 miles...I hope Montgomery is better than Birmingham...
Eh, nope! Mont was just like Birmingham! Sad....I passed Bo Bice's home town! That was sweet!



Sept. 13, 2005

It's Tuesday, I think...We didn't do anything yesterday. Just went to Uncle Cliffe's shop, and helped mask a truck for him to paint. Painting a vechile is easy, masking the vechile is the hardest! Mom, aunt Mary, and me went back to Aunt Mary's house, and we fell asleep. I'm surprised on how much uncle Earl has went down. I'll be surprised if he see's 2006! I didn't feel like going to the shop today. My sinuses are killing me...I'm here at Aunt Mary's by myself. Surprisingly I'm not having computer withdrawls.
If I have to hear Keith Anderson's "XXL" one more time, I'm going to kill the radio.I'm bored! AAAAAAAH!



Sept. 15, 2005

It's Thursday, and there's othing "happy" about it! Atleast not on my end! Sinuses suck! I have been annoyied with them, for about 3 days. Joy! Then womanhood deside's to make an appearance! Can't get any better than this...Can it?
I got to drive to Aunt Mary's house yesterday...I didn't hit no one, nor did I almost hit anybody! My daddy was proud!
We watched ghosthunters, btw I love STEVE! Then we watched MindFreak with Criss Angel...I love him too! I'm probably the only person that loves Criss!
I had a stupid dream that involved Judy! It involved cute boys, but it was really stupid!
I'm bored!

 
Sept. 19, 2005

Hello Monday! Your boring! Alone and at my aunts house...AGAIN! Yesterday was boring...I called Judy, and we talked for 2 hours and 17 seconds! HOW SAD! But it was funny! Mmm...Canadian bacon!
It's hot and cloudy here. This is how sad it was today...i found nothing on, so I watched "Spice World" with the Spice Girls! I've seen it before...SHUT IT! Now, I'm waiting on Strong Medicine, and Birth Day!
I want the Ryan Shupe and The Rubberband cd...Has anyone else gotten it? Lonestar's version of "Coming Home" is starting to grow on me...I will never like it as much as ED's version, but they didn't do to bad on it! :-)
Will & Grace is my favorite tv show, for the moment! It's so goofy!



Sept. 21, 2005

We just got out of Hattiesburge, MS, and gas stations are going nuts. Apparently, someone started a rumor that FEMA was taking over the MS gas station's gas...So Now everyone is freaking out...HELLO Water-headed, morons...FEMA has no control over the gas...The main guy at FEMA even said so...Calm down, and get a grip!
I'm so paranoid for the people in Texas. I'm praying that those people will get out!

 
God, protect all those people. Let them have enough sense to get out, and get to a safe place. Place your hands on them, and keep them calm. In your son's name, Amen!

The only quesiton is have is this: Can out nation handle another national diseaster?
We are listening to these guys on the radio. They are taking people's phones calls, on the gas station nuttness...So far the radio guys have used "stupid, morons" and my all time favorite line they have used is "These people are stuck on stupid!" I probably should laughing, since they did face gas problems a few weeks ago, but what mom, dad, and myself saw with our own eyes...These people went beyond nuts...They went to pathetic!
 
Well it's a long way from Star, Mississippi/
  To the big stage/  I'm singing on tonight/

We just went through Faith Hill's home town of Star, Mississippi! It's a tiny town...Very cute...Remind's me of home!

Searching...

Sorry for not updating... I just need to spiritually vent for a moment...I for one, am not the best person at being a Christian...I've called on God to help me, He has..I say "Thanks pal!" and continue on my sinful ways...I think I'm beginning to realize in a human way what that's like for God...With everything going on down south. I've looked at it a different way...I put myself in the God's shoes...He's been warning us for thousand's of years. He's been trying to guide us from harms way. Yet, we keep going our own root. Kind-of like the people down south. They were told to leave, many people did. However many people didn't. Which in case they were either killed, swept out to sea, or trapped for many days. I have put myself in God's shoes, and thought about how He could feel when we say "Yeah yeah! Whatever!" then do what we want. The pain I feel in my heart, is terrible. It's probably like a parent trying to guide their child, but yet no matter what they do their child won't listen. They have to stand back, and let them fall...I believe God helps us to a point then he throws His hand's up, and say's "Alright fine...You think you can do it? Go right ahead!" Of course He wants to help us, He's God!
I remember right after I started playing the game Sims! It was a blast...You got to build a house, and make a family, and do all these neat things. I remember one day, my Sims were not working with me...I kept telling them to do something and they kept shaking their heads, and doing what they wanted. It got very frustrating...Which is probably how God feels...

I've been on a spiritual downward spiral for the past month, I would say...No matter what I do. No matter how hard I pray, I still end up back in Satan's corner. It's very annoying, and I can't figure out why. My heart shatter's when ever I see the picture's of down south, and one day I was just overcome with pain, and sorrow...I walked into another room, and I started praying...I don't know if it was God, or not...However, I felt like I was being told not to worry, that it would all be over soon...What would be? How soon? What will happen? Those are the question's I'm still trying to get an answer for. Rather or not it was God, I've alway's believed that I would witness the return of Christ...Yeah, yeah! I know, people have been saying that for year's...If I"m wrong, then I'll eat my words with a side of crow...
I've heard this said several time's, on the whole Israel becoming a nation again, and how that play's with the end times...I heard that somewhere in the Bible it say's something like, a person living in the generation when Irsael becomes a naiton again, will not die. They will see the return of Jesus...Not in those exact words, but that's pretty much what it meant...IF that's true it could happen within the next 50 years...Ok, people...I want to get this out, I am NOT in no way date setting...Jesus could come tomorrow, 3 second's from now, or 200 year's from now...No one knows...

What I'm getting at is that I do believe that we are in the end times...I think that's why I've been having worst, and worst spiritual warfare going on...It seems like everytime I turn around, there's satan hissing his evilness in my ear...It tear's me apart inside knowing that if Jesus returned tomorrow, over half the people I know would be left behind...I've tried everything...Talking to them, praying for them...Nothing is working...I hope and pray that God not only open's their eyes, but the eye's of the world...So, what I would ask of you reading this is that, if there's someone you know that isn't saved, go to them and talked to them about God...Because even if you save one person's eternal life, it's better than not saving any at all...

This is my all time favorite song...

Lord I'm ready now
I'm waiting for Your triumphant return
You're coming so soon
This world has nothing for me
I find my peace and joy solely in You
Only in You
I want the world to see that
You're alive and living well in me
Let me be a part of the harvest
For the days are few
He's coming soon

People get ready Jesus is comin'
Soon well be going home
People get ready Jesus is coming
To take from the world His own

There will be a day
When we will be divided right and left
For those who know Him
And those who do not know
Those who know Him well
Will meet Him in the air
Hallelujah
God is with us
Those who do not know
They will hear "Depart, I knew you not"
For my friends you see
There will be a day when well be counted
So know Him well, know Him well

People get ready Jesus is comin'
Soon well be going home
People get ready Jesus is cominG
To take from the world His own
People get ready Jesus is comin'
Soon well be going home
People get readyJesus is coming
To take from the world His own

How Long Has It Been?

Great hymn...

How long has it been since you talked with the Lord
And told Him your heart's hidden secret's
How long since you prayed
How long since you stayed
On your knees 'til the light shone through?

How long has it been since your mind felt at ease?
How long since your heart knew no burden?
Can you call Him your friend?
How long has it been
Since you knew He cared for you?

How long has it been since you knelt by your bed
And prayed to the Lord up in heaven?
How long since you knew
That He'd answer you,
And would keep you the long night through?

How long has it been sinc eyou woke with the dawn
And felt that the day's worth the living?
Can you call Him your friend?
How long has it been
Since you knew that He cared for you?

Thinking out loud

I sit here today thinking about what's happened in the last 6 day's. It makes me wonder. How much time do we have left? I know, it's like a Christian to bring God into everything that happen's. I believe there are reason's to everything that happen's, and that God try's to show us something through every bad thing that happen's.

I look around me, and all I see if heartache, pain, suffering, the face of death, a country teeter's on the edge of the cliff. This hurricane has shown us how close we play to the edge. This hurricane has almost brought our entire country to its knee's. What if something else happens? What if the waterhead's in the middle east decide to use this to their advantage? What if we get attacked? It wouldn't take much to kick us the rest of the way down. Or what if we get hit by a hard earthquake? Sound paranoid? Maybe I am, but I'm trying to look at all the side's here. What's happened, is I believe God trying to get our attention. For the record, this hurricane was NOT a judgment. Those don't come till AFTER the rapture, FYI! Why would God want to be getting our attention about? I don't know...Maybe He's trying to get us to come to Him, before the glorious appearing of His son. Maybe He's trying to get us to see that we are SUCKING as a so-called "free, peacful, and an under God" country. What do I hope it is? I hope He's trying to bring the unsaved to Him, before Jesus come's and take's us to God. I'm not gonna sit here, and say "Jesus is coming...EVERYBODY! Stop what your doing, and run out to the local church and repent!" No, I'm not going to say that. What I'm saying is, we don't know the time of Jesus' return. It could be tomorrow. Next month, 3 year's from now, or 5 minute's from now. We don't know. But I ask that you don't sit there, and say "Jesus isn't coming today, we still have years yet!" Jesus said, "For no one know's the time of my return. Not even the angel's in Heaven, but only the Father. But there will be sign's in the sun, moon, and stars. There will be wars, and rumor's of war. Famine, earthquakes, pestilences.Man's heart will grow cold. When you see these thing's happen, do not be afraid. Lift your head, and watch for my return." Ok, mayeb not in those exact words, but that's pretty much what he was saying...Hebrew guys, they alway's have to use those weird words! LOL!...

Hmmm...Tough room...Anyway...I would like to post for you a verse in I Kings that I found interesting...

“Behold, the Lord passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and broke in pieces the rocks before the Lord; but the Lord was not in the wind: and after the wind and earthquake; but the Lord was not in the earthquake: And after the earthquake a fire; but the Lord was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.”

I don't know why, but I like that verse...

I guess what I'm trying to say is, don't keep pushing Jesus' return off...Believe "Hey, I could wake-up in Heaven tomorrow! ROCK ON!" Not "All this is crap...he ain't coming for another 1,000 years!" Because one day, you could wake-up to a huge surprise...Are you ready?
